The Royal Concertgebouw Amsterdam
The Royal Concertgebouw is one of the world's most renowned concert venues, acclaimed for its excellent acoustics and top-quality programming. The institution is home to the Royal Concertgebouw Orchestra.
Home of classical music in Amsterdam
Completed in 1888, this impressive building overlooking Museumplein, has been the centre of classical music in the Netherlands for well over a century.
It houses three beautiful performance spaces: the grand Main Hall for orchestral performances, the Small Hall for quartets and chamber music, and the more intimate Choir Hall for recitals.
With annual attendance hitting more than 800,000, the Royal Concertgebouw has the world’s second-highest attendance record of its kind.
World-class programming
The Royal Concertgebouw is behind the majority of its programming, with a leading role being reserved for series such as the SummerConcerts, powered by BankGiro Loterij and the Sunday Morning Concerts.
